Neutral witnesses and assessments
An independent testimony stems from an
Egyptian Navy officer, who claimed that the Indian ships were docked at the Visakhapatnam harbour when the explosions from the supposed Indian sinking of
Ghazi occurred, and that "it was not until about an hour after the explosion, that two Indian naval ships were observed leaving harbour".
[18]
Many independent writers and investigators maintained the
Ghazi was sunk mysteriously not by two depth charges alone–
Ghazi may have sunk either by the hydrogen explosion produced when the batteries were charging, or by the detonation of a mine, or either by the sea floor impact while trying to avoid the depth charge released by the INS
Rajput.

In 2012, Pakistani
investigative journalists from
The Express Tribune who were affiliated with the
Express News USA based in the
Washington D.C. were able to get in touch with
Diablo's' retired and now-aged former
US Navy crew members who were allowed to study the sonar pictures and sketches of the sunken vessel where they believed that: "an explosion in the Forward Torpedo Room (FTR) destroyed the Ghazi."

(from wikipedia, they have used multiple sources, they all seem to agree with Pakistani view. Its just India who has different view.)
